Access Point Mode Not working

I just bought Deco x10 and have been trying to configure it. My ISP speed in 220mbps. My main deco is connected to the router via an Ethernet cable and is giving 220 mbps speed. My satellite deco is also connected to the router via an Ethernet cable but is showing only 140mbps speed. Mode of operation is access point. The network in my app is showing the satellite unit is connected to the main deco via Wi-Fi. How can I get full 220mbps in my satellite deco?
It is possible your ISP Router does not support Deco Ethernet backhaul, it is also possible Ethernet cable you use has issues.
Take Satellite Deco with its Ethernet cable connected to Router, connect Satellite Deco to Ethernet port of Main Deco instead. If you now see Ethernet backhaul for Satellite Deco, the cable is not the problem.
If problem is not with the Ethernet cable, you have two options:
1. Keep Satellite Deco wired to Main Deco;
or
2. Get inexpensive 5-port gigabit switch from TP-Link brand and wire both Deco to it, wire switch to ISP Router. Like this:
